AN ELOQUENT TRIBUTE
Paid the Great CongreG ational
Preacher by Or. Shutter.


Preacher by Or. Shutter.
In an eloquent sermon, yesterday morn
ing, at the Church of the Redeemer. Dr.. NJ
ID. Shutter paid the following tribute to
Henry Ward Beecher:
One of The most conspicuous figures of the
present day has just passed away. The gates
of the other life have opened and HenryW ard
Beecher has entered. 1t is due to his mem
ory that we cast some offering upon his new
macd grave. The services he rendered our
country in his warfare against slavery and in
his efforts for the Union at home and abroad
IN the great conflict that followed, entitle
him to grateful recognition. The
words of wisdom and heipfulness he
spoke from the pulpit. inspire our tenderest
remembrance. There is mourning for him
not only in the great congregation to which
he ministered for forty years, but throughout
the land and across the ocean. While all that
were about him bemoan him, all that knew
his name say How is the strong staff broken
and the beautiful rod.
whatever else Mr.. Beecher may have been,
he WIS pre-eminently preacher. On the
pulpit platform Of Plymouth church his great
work was done. That was the throne from
which for more than generation he welded
the scepter of his moral empire.
An the qualities, physical, intellec tual and
emotional. essential to u great popular orator

THE SACRED SABBATH. .
The Nay Kept Very Holy Yester.
day in the Way of Traffic,

2 Yesterday was a red letter day in the
history OF Minneapolis, and will not be for
gotten by the thousands of citizens who
were upon the street. All the barber shops
were tightly closed, and nearly all, if not
all, the saloons were fastened (both front
and side doors) and the curtains were down.
giving the places an air of des0latiOn not
seen here for 10, these many moons. At
the drug stores each person seeking
to purchase anything except surgical appli-
ances, medicine or tobacco was gently
but most firmly refused, and it did not re-
QGire much stretch of the Imagination to
fancy ones self back in the old Puritan
times in New England, when a man was
heavily fined for kissing his wife Oh Sunday.
All the hack drivers along the street looked
blue, and remarks to the effect that If the
business was kept up it would hurt them, /"
were frequent. About 10 o'clock man
who had evidently been out with the
boys" the night before and had neglected to
get shaved as well, stood Oh the corner of
First avenue south and Washington, and
asked pasSers-by if they knew where he
could get drink. None knew, it
appeared, for the man tried one saloon
door after another in an endeaver to get
in and quench his raging thirst. Suddenly
the thought that he must get shaved
dawned upon him, and he made rush for
barber shop, only to be met with bitter
disappointment. as the door was locked,
and a card reading: This Place Will BE
Closed on Sunday Hereafter" stared him
in the face. This was a poser. but he
thought he wOuld surmount the obstacle
by purchasing razor and shaving
himself. Going to a drug store he
asked for a razor, but almost tainted
when told that none were for sale, as it
was Sunday, and the proprietor did not
wish to violate the Sunday law. Pleadngs
and offers of big money were alike useless.
and the man finally departed, swearing that
he would not live i'll Minneapolis another
week. This was only sample of the
scenes that took place. and an artist could
have caught many interesting studies from
the faces of some of the men who found
themselves shut out.

Enumerated by DIR. Van Anda mt
Centenary Methodist Church.


At the Centenary NJ. E. church, Yesterday
DR.. c. A. Van Anda took his text from l
Cor. 1x:12. 1--WE suffer all things, lest we
should hinder the gospel of Christ"
Paul is enumerating his rights. He had
right 10 eat and drink; to marry and have a
home; rghtto support-as had the SOL
der, the nnsbandman and the shepherd.
Moses forbade the muzzling of the OK when
treading out the corn; and if God made pro-
vision for oxen, much more had He for His
ministers. BESIDES since He had .niuistered
to them in spiritual things it was only re a
sonable that they minister to Him in tenn
poral things. Still He would not insist upon
these just claims but the gospel He hindere d.
1t is possible to hinder the gospel. There is
only one river of life and we may turn aside
its waters and leave the multitudes to perish
We can hinder the material development
OF men, idleness, prodigality, fraud, may
| impoverish neighborhood--So our neglect
of the gospel and opposition to it hinders 9TH
ers from securing its blessings. This nation
hindered the material and moral advance
! ment OF a whole race for generations, thrust
| ing them down into d degradation almost on
| level with the beasts OF the field Thorns
and thistles are growing in many fields where,
| ~ industry, many harvests might have been
gathered. We have withheld the labor and
money which were needed for their cultiva-
| ton, and are responsible for the hunger
which would have been satisfied but for our
ideness. At the ecclesiastical conference
held in London, September, 1881, missionary
who had spent twenty-five years in China
| said the greatest hindrance to the gospel
| there was the opium trade; q traffic thrust
upon that nation against the earnest protset
of the emperor. Our government legalizes
the rum traffic and TINS binders the gos-
| pei in instances without number.
The gospel needs ministers to preach it and
the press to publish it, and we withhold the
means necessary for its publication and
| thereby hinder it. A member of the Christian
church spends $500 year in superfiuitIes
and So for missions. PROGRESSED Christian
worth 100000, who made by single trans
action $4,000, gave $40 to build church in
his native town. and gives SIS year to his
preacher aud thinks himself liberal. Three
members of the Christian church, worth re-
spectively $4,000. $50 OoO and S2S, 900, gave
each So for benevolent purposes. Dear
friends have we hindered the gospel? Doubt
| less conscience condemns US. Let US repent
| in dust and ashes. and hereafter str i've to
meet all obligations in the fear of God.

A FORTUNATE UNFORrUNATE.
Death Brings sweet Release From a.
Life of shame.

Life OF Sha me.
Miss Connie Barton died yesterday ut ST.
Barnabas hospital, ut the age of Il years.
Funeral from the hospital this morning at 10
O'Clock. Interment at Lakewood.
The above announcement marks the
close of life whose later years were spent
in the sin which society cannot pardon in
woman. Yesterday the women of the First
street house in which she lived when
stricken with fatal illness, pur-
chased an elegant caSket and burial
robe for their dead, and bought beautiful
pillow of roses, emblematic OF the rest to
which a tired spirit has gone. and to-day
they will follow her body to the cemetery.
1t is doubtful if such an instance OF dlsin-
terested kindness would happen in any re-.
spectacle boarding house in the city. The
dead girl had no claims upon her former
companions other than those of sympa-
thy. Had she sickened at almost
any respectable boarding house in
the city she would have been
sent to the hospital, just as happened to
her. But when dead it must be owned that
the probabilities are that the city would
have buried her in the potters field. 1t is
not intended to palliate in the least degree
the horrible evil Of the life that is led by
NouieIl III UdSHlOS, DuI WIZ Siidll say luiI
such acts as these shall be ignored by the
high court of heaven? If the good i'm
pulses which lead to such charitable acts
could but be fostered, and like the flowers
that beautify the black pail, could be made
to bloom, surely the fruit would be such as
to cure these leprous lives. The SHINING
girl is dead, with all her evil deeds and evil
influences; and to-day a crowd of idle
sightseers will make sighting remarks
about her and the friends that follow her.
The men who were her patrons will laugh
about her and turn to enter sacred homes,
where they will be welcomed by mother
and daughter, neither Of whom have tear
for the dead girl that was 10 more guilty
than the men with whom she associated.

An Entire Suspension of 4 raffic on
Some Lines.

Some Lines.
YOUNGSTOWN. O., March lathe yard
and road crews on the Niles and New Lis
bon branch of the New York, Pennsylva-
Mo 81 Ohio, struck this morning. stating
that they would not return until existing
troubles were amicably settled. The yard
men and roadmen on the Pittsburg.
Cleveland & Toledo road who gave
notice last Monday, asserted that if an
order is not issued to-day putting on the
third brakeman all will strike tonight,
causing an entire suspension of freight
traffic between Pittsburg and Akron via
Youngstown. Superintendent Kimball, of
the Pennsylvania company, this morning
called upon Sheriff Walker. stating
that they intended to fill the places
of the striking yardmen with other
men, and fearing violence de-
manded protection. Sheriff Walker went
to the yard alone, not deeming it necessary
to call On posse. One new man brOugl
from Lawrence Junction was at work help
ing freight house employees to move train,
and another man was brought in later.
Several striking yardmen were cOngregated
near the yard, but were quiet and upon
being asked to dispense walked away. The
men say they will attempt no violence
Two deputy sheriffs are on duty In the
yard in case an outbreak should occur.

MARQUETTE, Mich, March IA crisis
is drawing near at Sault station. where the
strikers still have possession of the con-
tractors camps. Provisions are running
out and the strikers threaten to raid the
supply stores. The sheriff has succeeded
in preventing violence thus far. The con-
tractors are determined to break the strike
by peaceful means if they can, or by force
if they must. Time is too precious
to them to admit of much
parleying. Should the strikers attempt to
destroy property there will be some killing
done. 1t is said that one-half the men are
willing to return to work, but the camps
are full of loafers from Detroit, who are in
citing the men to violence. A number OF
arrests will follow the strike. The situa-
ton is critical this afternoon. but it is hoped
that bloodshed will be averted.
